I'm certainly no spelling bee, but did get a chuckle out of our collective inability to spell the word caucuses.  On Thursday, the day of the Iowa Caucuses, Google Trends picked up on two peculiar searches: the 46th most popular search that day was "iowa caucasus" and the 51st was simply "caucasus".

Turns out the Caucasus are a mountain range in Caucasia, between the Black and Caspian seas, along the border between the Russian Federation, Georgia, and Azerbaijan.

Perhaps some Obama supporters linger there as well?

Trying not to do too much here by way of politics. But, couldn't resist this one.

Sen Joseph Biden of Delaware announced his exploratory committee today. Just so happens, though, that on this very day the New York Observer released its interview with Biden where he attacks just about everyone on the planet, and offers this bit on Obama that since ignited a firestorm across the net:

Mr. Biden is equally skeptical—albeit in a slightly more backhanded way—about Mr. Obama. “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

Dare I say - an inauspicious start [end?] of one's campaign for President of these United States.
